Bio
Gerardo Mejia
Ben has always impressed me with the quality of their writing, and how detail-oriented he is shown through the years of projects he has worked on. With the dedication he has put in, he has built a popular brand and a show that has influenced many with its success. Working with him was always great and it was always easy to get feedback on the projects I work under his supervision. With the level of detail these projects required, having his reviews and notes helped a lot to get a final product out efficiently. Will look forward to what he will work on next!

It has been my pleasure to have spent the better part of my career in entertainment working with Ben Singer. As the creator of Death Battle, Ben as built a diverse team of artists and directors in leading the production of episodic content for the brand. A brand that continues to host one of the strongest shows in the Rooster Teeth eco-system. He understands our core audience, who have been champions for the brand, landing us in the top percentile of podcasts that listeners truly enjoy and trending consistently YoY on YouTube. Much of this is due to Ben's ability to host and create content that our fanbase finds engaging and rewarding. Experience that he has then applied in the production services world in working with some of our biggest clients. He was the director on one of our shorts for HBO max. He's created content for 343/Microsoft, Webtoon, and WarnerBros Discovery. And continues to develop new ideas and creative approaches to storytelling in New Media. He would be an incredible leader in any creative environment.
